Wendy Qi Zhang is a 3D digital artist & designer based in Darug land, Western Sydney.
Through empathy and research, combined with technological interventions, she interrogates multi-layered cultural identities and the interconnection between the digital and physical. Her practice explores finding a rooting within our culturally diverse communities. As well as investigations into the hyper-real. Wendy’s practice allows her to speculate a reality aligned with critical collective hope. Her practice is a continuous inquiry into how we can imagine futures where tradition, technology, and nature are in harmony, fostering environments for healing, empathy, and reflection.
Projects include a 3D projection artwork at Chatswood Nights, participation in Diversity Arts Australia’s “I AM NOT A VIRUS”, and a collaboration with Sydney-based artist Kristina Mai to create an augmented reality experience at Gallery Lane Cove. Wendy through her PhD is developing new approaches to self and collective healing through interactive technology. She holds a Master’s degree in Interactive Design & Electronic Arts.
